“I mean, aren't you though”
The “I mean” is pointless here. “You aren’t?” Would sound better, convey the same information, be faster, and cost less to voice.
The entire dialogue is awful. When I play an RPG I want to be immersed into another world with a different yet recognizable speech pattern. Instead what we get here is something akin to "OMG the king is such a chud!" "Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Maybe if he was, I dunno, like a decent human being, things would be better. But right now it's like 'yikes!'."
Even the decades old Ultima series had lines like "'Tis my worst fear! I must send thee to a dangerous place! Hail, Avatar!" And I liked that just fine; I would even be willing to look up words that I never heard before because they just aren't widely used today.
